Well, looks like he's driving on the right side of the pavement, so it can't be GB or Australia. Any other guesses, since that's what we're left to do?

Thanks for the nice pictures! Lovely color? What shade is it?

Does the light colored dash cast reflections on the windsheild?

Since you had more time to drive the Cali, have any of your early opinions comparing it the Merc changed? Sporty driving, handling, etc.

I was surprised that you felt the Merc was more practical.

Does have winter tires, though!

Body surfacing in second to last picture looks great - makes me think this just might be like many other pininfarina designs that only get better with time.

Thanks for heads up Mike, I am assuming you will be one of the first people to have that car.

Congrats, good color for that car.

I like how you turned the car into a thing of beauty by cutting off the fugly rear end with your photography

Congrats on the new ride! That's a perfect color package given the cars more subtle, everyday mission. I like.

Just curious about the information about the 430 replacement (450?). Is this word from the factory itself or from a dealership? In my experience, dealers (particularly salespeople) offer information that is wildly off. If you believe it to be ironclad I'll certainly take your word!
